💡 Vulnerability Scanning Explained
Vulnerability scanning is the automated process of probing web applications for known weaknesses. Attackers use tools like Nuclei, Nikto, and ZAP to test thousands of hosts per hour, looking for exposed configuration files, outdated software, and default credentials.
💡 Certificate Transparency Monitoring
Certificate Transparency logs record all publicly trusted TLS certificates. Monitoring these logs reveals unauthorized certificate issuance, phishing domain preparation, and shadow IT — providing early warning of attacks targeting an organizations domain.
